Good News!! Rochester African American Gun Club

[turbobike]

Welcome…Welcome! The more education and pro 2A citizens the better!

'We exist because we need to,' says founder of Rochester's first Black-owned gun club

A spike in gun sales in the Black community has prompted a similar jump in the number of groups promoting responsible gun ownership.

More power to them. Will be interesting to see if the local piece of kotex (democrat & chronicle) picks up this story or has the same positive bias.

Hope we have some members here ... Keep us informed

They don’t have a range, though—is it a social group that gets together at the firing pin, or…?

They have to be careful. The average woke white suburban liberal with a BLM yard sign in their yards have lived their whole life in a loaf of whitebread suburbia. Although they love to wear their wokeness, deep down they are scared to death of black people. Even Will Smith. Their only exposure to black America is what they see in Rap Videos. When they hear about or see black men with guns they mess themselves and the result is more gun laws. I call them Progressive Democrats.

That would be funny if it wasn't so true.

 

[thegatman]

Good for them.

 

[nortatoga]

They would be more then welcome at my Club!!!

 

[GTN]

I wish I had a group of like minded gun friends to hang out with and shoot with

 

[Vantrepes]

Would have been nice for the report to include contact information for others to join the Club....
Good to see people taking responsibility for themselves, and their own protection, no matter what their skin color is.

Nice! Good to see a group band together and share knowledge and experiences to improve their proficiency in defense firearm techniques. Hopefully one day they'll have enough members to put together the capital to open their own actual range.

One of my best friends is a black man who grew up in the slums of Newburgh, hates BLM as a racist organization, and has to tell all his woke white neighbors in the affluent suburb of Brighton near Rochester that they're a bunch of dumbasses and haven't a clue what they're talking about. Get a Jameson or two into him and you'd be amazed at the shit that rolls out of his mouth about his childhood.

LMK when he's coming to next AA lunch just might take drive to meet him!

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

Now if only they start to change voting habits to match their interests

 

[Grimscale]

Hmm..
I thought there used to be an actual Gun Club that was owned by a black person somewhere north of LeRoy.

Guess that doesn't count as "Rochester"? But a "Gun Club" with no "Club" does?

 

[meketrefe]

Love this. I hope it grows to be 1M members and get some land downtown to make a state of the art range.

 

[GOPerfect]

So, I am happy to see their is another gun club. This makes me smile...

But, I will be that guy (sorry), why put such an emphasis on being black owned? This is the real pandemic in the US, labels and separations.

I hope them well and I hope this is very successful.

I take it as members of the black community waking up and trying to take charge of their own security from their own people. How many black neighborhoods are terrorized daily by black gangs, and the residents are powerless to help themselves? They call the cops, cops shoot gang banger, riots ensue. If many more of these communities would rise up in their own defense , I think you'd a trend away from racial division.

Absolutely picking up what you are placing down. I really do hope this turns out to be an awesome success.

I don't see any reason for apologizing for the obvious here ^^^^^^^!!

Until EVERYONE gets rid of placing 'labels' on people based upon skin color, ethnicity, etc., and starts to refer to people as just 'people', we will NEVER, EVER get rid of this whole fabricated 'racism'!!

This is no different than referring to someone who decides to go on a murdering spree, and their choice being a firearm, being referred to as the; 'SHOOTER', or 'AS MASS SHOOTING'. Instead of the; 'MURDERER', and the event as 'MASS MURDER'!!!

The media has reprogrammed the masses, us included, to believe these are the proper terms to use when discussing people, or events!!
I really go out of my way, to be sure whenever something is said like this, that I immediately correct the person saying it. I have absolutely zero problems doing it, and will not be apologizing for it!!

Well, no clubhouse or range.

If you can have a motorcycle club that just meets at a local bar then goes riding, why not a gun club that goes to a public range ?

I'm more annoyed with everyone having to add "the FIRST..." whatever flavor-of-the-month to their announcements.
It's 2021. I seriously doubt this is the first all black, or black owned, gun club in Rochester. They just conveniently ignore or forget anything that came before to push their agenda (the news, not the members of the club).

 

[pshift]

There is an entire national association which they *may* be associated with. They have chapters everywhere. I welcome them to the fray since we all have a common interest.

Use to be a black trap club over by Leroy, the Falcon if I remember right, good guys. They were part of a league.

Yea I shot there a few times in a league. Good guys.

 

[dean3690]

The more the merrier. Definitely has an impact in many ways. I may selfishly enjoy the impact on woke whites the most immediately, but from a practical sense, I love all people exercising rights and liberty and how it impacts the world, especially here in NYS.

The reactions and sentiments on this forum are exactly what I see at the range too and they make me very encouraged.

This might be the one I was thinking of. I think I shot trap there as part of the GVTL.

What ever happened to it?
